2002 - Fluidhand 5 Up The Fluidhand 5 was designed with the aim of integrating all system components of miniature hydraulics into the metacarpals in order to make the hand compatible with established socket systems. The prosthesis can be connected to all standard prosthetic sockets via a quicksnap wrist. Both the myoelectric sensors and the energy storage of the socket are used. The pump, fluid tank, valve bank and controller are located in and on the metacarpus. With the reduction in tank size, the number of fluidic drive was reduced to 8. The ring finger and little finger are flexed over one drive each. In the weight-optimized frame in sandwich construction, the elastic finger abduction was integrated. Five valves control the 8 drives of the hand, with the ring, little and middle fingers being hydraulically connected to each other. Each of the 8 bellows-like drives is covered with a fabric that ensures the dimensional stability of the elastic inner chambers when a fluid is pumped into the cavity at a pressure of up to 6bar. The central chambers are fixed at the joint pivot point by loadable cords, thus the expansion of the bellows is redirected into a 90 degree rotational movement of the finger joint. The resetting of a joint is achieved by negative pressure in the bellows drive when the drive chambers are emptied; an elastic band supports the stretching of the joints. For storing the drive medium, usually water, Fluidhand 5 experimented with both foil membrane tanks and pressure storage tanks consisting of an elastic hose tank and a stable housing. Up

The neo1 exoskeleton for the upper extremities: myoelectric control, wearable under clothing, ideal for paralysis caused by stroke or plexus injuries. neo1 World's first under-clothing myoelectric exoskeleton for the upper extremity With neo1, Vincent Systems presents the breakthrough myoelectric exoskeleton designed specifically for users with limited upper extremity functionality, especially to compensate for paralysis caused by stroke and plexus injuries. This innovative technology uses advanced myoelectric control in conjunction with powerful micromotors in the elbow and hand areas to help users with their mobility and independence challenges due to their limitations. The myoelectric exoskeleton uses state-of-the-art sensor technology that detects and interprets the electrical signals generated by the user's muscles. By analyzing these signals, the exoskeleton intuitively responds to the user's movement intentions and allows them to regain control over their affected limbs. One of the most important features of this exoskeleton is its lightweight and ergonomic design. It is the world's first actively controlled exoskeleton that can be worn under the user's clothing due to its slim shape that is adapted to the body. This feature opens up a whole new horizon of applications as the system can be inconspicuously integrated into everyday life. Vincent Systems emphasizes comfort and adaptability, allowing users to wear the device for extended periods of time. The exoskeleton is customized to fit each user's anatomy. The control system is also user-specific, optimally adjusted for each wearer through a variety of parameters depending on the severity of the paralysis and the available muscle signals. In addition, the myoelectric exoskeleton offers different levels of support, allowing the user to gradually increase muscle activation and improve strength and control over time. This progressive approach promotes neuroplasticity and thereby also supports active rehabilitation. In the long term, positive effects are expected with regard to the reduction of phantom limb pain as well as a preventive effect with regard to the avoidance of overuse symptoms. neo1 we love perfection

Specialized software solutions for controlling and adjusting prostheses and exoskeletons – intuitive operation and adjustment. Software for configuring and adjusting the prostheses VINCENTmobile The VINCENTmobile app comes standard on a tablet with every myoelectric hand prosthesis. It can be used to make user-specific settings as well as to train the numerous grips of the VINCENT hand prostheses.

The world's first myoelectric partial hand prosthesis that is IP68 waterproof. It also features intuitive control, individual customization, and a high quality of life. VINCENTpartial4 Waterproof to IP68 | Modular design | Individually customizable | Single Finger Control Light and compact | Numerous grip types, selectable at any time | Available in 40 color combinations The functional prosthetic restoration of parts of the hand presents a particular technical challenge. The myoelectrically controlled partial hand prosthesis VINCENTpartial4 is specifically designed to meet these needs, as it can be individually adapted to the care situation. The VINCENTpartial4 is a hand prosthesis for partial hand restorations with motorised individual fingers and thumbs. Sensors and controls have been miniaturised to allow them to be placed directly on the back of the hand, together with the mouldable battery cells. This allows an anatomical reconstruction of the hand where technically possible. The fingers and thumb are attached to the prosthetic socket using a steel frame design. This determines the width of the hand as well as the position and alignment of the fingers. The metacarpal arch can also be modelled. The prosthesis can be controlled via EMG sensors using muscle tension or via tactile force sensors. The battery system can be charged via a USB-C socket. If there is no power socket, it can also be charged via a mobile power bank. The grip selection and control of fingers follow the uniform control concept of the VINCENT hand prostheses. Many different grips can be achieved by timed opening and closing signals, using four long fingers and a thumb. If fewer powered fingers are used, the number of grips are reduced accordingly. The fingers and thumb are made of high-strength aluminium alloy, or titanium for even greater durability. All components are rubberised for a secure grip, and the tip of the index finger is touchscreen compatible. The joints of all fingers and the thumb are fully covered in every possible position. This prevents objects from being clamped as the fingers and the thumb open. Eight different colors give the silicone parts of the VINCENTpartial4 an individual and unique design. The colors black, white, pearl white and transparent as well as four different natural colors are available, each in combination with five different metal colors and titanium. Waterproofness of the prosthesis The motorised fingers of the VINCENTpartial4 are waterproof according to IP68. Washing hands under running water is possible, provided that the design of the prosthesis socket also permits this. The control unit, sensors and batteries must still be protected from water. Single finger control The single finger control enables the five fingers to be individually controlled by up to five input signals. This allows a faster and more intuitive use of the prosthesis.

Isabelle shares her experience with her Vincent prosthesis: from practicing in everyday life to natural and precise control of the hand. Close User Story von Isabelle - VINCENTevolution5 In everyday life and in my studies – my journey with an arm prosthesis By Isabelle Hi, I’m Isabelle. I wear a myoelectric above-elbow prosthesis and have been the proud owner of my VINCENTevolution bionic hand since 2020. I have to say, when I first found myself alone in everyday life with the prosthetic hand, I felt slightly overwhelmed. Controlling a myoelectric prosthetic hand requires a change in mindset: no intuitive grasping anymore, but instead the active contraction of my biceps and triceps muscle signals. For someone inexperienced, this is exhausting — both for the muscles and the brain. Using these two muscle signals, 16 different grip patterns can be controlled via a grip scheme. So there I stood, trying to imagine which grip would be best suited to open a simple tea bag package. Then I had to intensely concentrate to recall the grip pattern so I knew which muscle combination to activate in order to reach that grip. Only then could I start the action. At the beginning, I had to accept that everyday activities took significantly more time than if I had simply done them with one hand. I needed patience, determination, and kindness toward myself, while staying highly focused and careful as I established reliable prosthetic control. But I really wanted this amazing bionic hand prosthesis, with all its functions, to become a part of me. So I consistently practiced with it in everyday life wherever possible. Practice makes perfect, and the brain is absolutely capable of relearning. Through my efforts, I quickly noticed progress: control became faster and smoother, success experiences increased, and I became more skillful in using the prosthesis. Cups no longer shattered on the floor, bottles were no longer crushed with excessive force, and I no longer had to plan extra time for daily activities. Operating the different grips became automatic, and the grip pattern was firmly memorized. By now, the upper arm prosthesis has become a part of me that I would never want to be without. I would feel lost if I had to navigate life with only one arm. In many everyday situations, the prosthesis supports me, such as tying my shoes, opening packaging, or unlocking my apartment door, which requires pulling the door with one hand while turning the key in the lock. I have truly come to appreciate the VINCENTevolution bionic hand and all its advantages. The precision and fine motor skills of the hand are incredible. With the pinch grip, I can even grasp and tear open the small tabs on yogurt cups. Thanks to vibration feedback while gripping, I have gradually developed a kind of sense of touch. I can now accurately judge how firmly I am gripping with the prosthetic hand and when the applied force is sufficient. My bionic hand prosthesis has given me back independence, acceptance, normality, and a sense of completeness. It is no longer a foreign object to me. The prosthesis is now my arm.

Four wrist options for flexible mobility, easy operation, and compatibility with our prosthetic systems. VINCENTwrist Wrist joints for adults and children | Standard, extra short, adjustable flexion | Low weight | Short length quicksnap | quicksnap+flexion | short | short+flexion VINCENTwrist quicksnap The standard wrist joint makes it possible to quickly and easily attach and remove the hand prosthesis. The joint offers compatibility with other systems such as DynamicArm or Boston Digital Arm™. VINCENTwrist short Our transcarpal joint convinces with its uniquely low mounting depth and is therefore also suitable for long arm stumps. In addition to the prosthesis-side joint, the shaft-side lamination plate (22 g / 0.05 lb) is also particularly light. The standard wrist and the transcarpal joint can be rotated noiselessly and gridlessly. The force required for rotation can be individually adjusted for each user. Both wrists can be combined with the joint VINCENTwrist flexion that can be angled. VINCENTwrist flexion The joint has a large range of movement and allows for flexion from -36° to +36°. lt is particularly suitable for bilateral users due to its switchless operation. The position is changed by pulling, moving and releasing. Our four wrist options are characterized by their low mounting depths. Due to the intelligent multi-material-mix, the wrists are particularly light and at the same time very robust and corrosion resistant.

Third-generation (of 5) myoelectric hand prosthesis with high grip strength, anatomical design, and precise control. VINCENTevolution3 / 3+ Modern look | 4-channel control | Anatomical design | Higher grip force | Compact, lightweight, robust Numerous grasps | Various wrist types | Easy operation without additional aids | Optionally available in titanium The third generation of the hand prosthesis series, VINCENTevolution3 features a multi-award-winning anatomical design concept and the proven control strategy of VINCENTevolution2. At the same time, it scores with twice the grip strength of its predecessor model, millimeter precision between the thumb and index finger, and an overall higher load-bearing capacity of the hand. The wearing comfort of the VINCENT hand series also stands out in the new model series due to the low prosthesis weight. The most striking innovation was achieved in terms of dimensions. While VINCENTevolution2 was only available in size M, VINCENTevolution3 anatomically reproduces all the usual sizes of an adult hand in sizes XS, S, M, L and XL. Sizes S and XS are currently the smallest multi-articulating hand prostheses on the market and could already be suitable for children and adolescents. The basic version of the VINCENTevolution3 is available in a stable aluminum alloy or optionally with finger components made of high-strength titanium. In addition, prosthesis wearers can choose between four different wrist options. Like all VINCENT prostheses, the third generation is equipped with a vibrotactile sense of touch and gesture-controlled handle selection. The hand can be worn in combination with a textile cosmetic glove from GF. glove factory UG, silicone or without a glove. NEW: VINCENTevolution3+ The VINCENTevolution3+ is the waterproof design variant of the VINCENTevolution3. Hand washing under running water is possible without any problems, provided that the design of the prosthesis stem also permits this. An already purchased VINCENTevolution3 with splash water protection IP64 can be upgraded to a VINCENTevolution3+ with protection against temporary submersion IP67 at any time. - Contact your service technician for more information.

In her user story, elementary school teacher Dorothee shares how she confidently teaches in the classroom with her VINCENTevolution hand prosthesis. Close My prosthesis in the classroom By Dorothee Hi, I'm Dorothee, I wear a forearm prosthesis, and I'm a primary school teacher. My prosthesis was never an obstacle to choosing this profession. What adults might only consider after giving it some thought is actually no problem for children. Children approach you without prejudice, but they also blurt out their questions directly. Is that a problem? No, otherwise this profession wouldn't be right for me. But my development in dealing with these many encounters and the prosthesis has changed with the VINCENTevolution hand prosthesis. For a long time, I wore a myoelectric forearm prosthesis with a silicone cover, which meant that it looked very realistic cosmetically and was not always immediately noticeable, but often only at second glance. This was pleasant, because I was not immediately the center of attention. The typical questions were, for example: “What is that?”, “Why do you have that?”, “Where is your real hand?”, “Why don't you have a real hand?”, “Is there a bone underneath?”, “Does it hurt?”, ... and only later: “How do you open it?” I answered the questions in more detail at times and more briefly at others when I had to repeat myself often. After getting to know the class for the first time, the focus then shifted more to the learning content. Nevertheless, the children saw exactly what I was doing and how I was doing it. The grip I had at the time supported me, but it wasn't always the best grip for many different things in terms of ergonomics and functionality, so I also had to use my other hand a lot for support. There came a time when my existing hand was overloaded. So I was open to advice on the prosthetic options now available on the market. The VINCENTevolution from Vincent Systems impressed me at the time with its high-tech features, numerous functions, high reliability when gripping, and cool appearance. Of course, it took some getting used to learning and being able to use so many grips when you're in a situation where you need to act quickly. I had to give myself a little more time and be patient until it became routine and a real benefit to my everyday life! From my initial attitude of “a prosthesis is an option, but not a necessity,” I came to realize with my new robot-style hand that “Hey! The prosthesis really helps me!” I noticed, for example, that the apple stayed in my hand and didn't slip out. Or that I could hold the book well without twisting and cramping my shoulder. Many more moments followed, so that I began to enjoy consciously using my prosthesis. At first, I still wore the hand prosthesis with a skin-colored glove cover. To be honest, it bothered me when I looked down and saw the black hand standing out so much. When Vincent Systems launched the different color options on the market, I was happy and chose the skin-colored version. What was interesting was how things developed at school. The children immediately asked more questions about the technology. “How does it work?”, “How can you change the grip?”, “Can you write with it?”, “Can you open this bottle?”, “Can you go in the water with it?” etc. So it was no longer so interesting why I wear a prosthesis, but what it can do and how it works. The focus was now on the technology or the thing itself and not directly on me, which I found very pleasant. The children's confidence in dealing with the “robot hand” strengthened and changed my perspective, and I now occasionally wear a loaner hand in a different color, not just my skin color. I myself became more experienced in using the grips and at the same time more confident with the many encounters and questions. When I have a new class and we get to know each other, there is always a question and answer session about the prosthesis. Anyone who wants to can touch it. Until their thirst for knowledge is quenched, it is impossible to continue with the lesson anyway. The students know what I am wearing, and it is normal at our school that I live and teach with a robotic hand.

Lightweight, robust, multi-articulated hand prosthesis for children and adolescents with a modern design and waterproof – ideal for active young users. VINCENTyoung3+ Waterproof to IP67 | Modern look | Anatomical design | High grip strength | Compact, lightweight, robust Various wrist types | Numerous grip types, selectable at any time | Easy to use | Available in four colors With VINCENTyoung3+, we are introducing the third generation of the world's unique multi-articulating hand prosthesis for children and young adults. Depending on the child’s individual development, use from the age of 8 is recommended. But even with adolescents, the anatomically shaped, particularly light hand can be the first choice. For young adults who have somewhat larger hands, the VINCENTevolution5 (size XS) can also be considered. Thanks to its lightweight construction, the prosthesis scores with its low weight (approx. 350 g ) and robustness, which is extremely important for active everyday activities. The VINCENTyoung3+ is waterproof to IP67. Hand washing under running water is possible without any problems, provided that the design of the prosthesis shaft also permits this. In terms of finger strength, speed and an opening width of 80 mm, the functionality extends to that of the larger models. Three of the four motors in the hand move the long fingers independently of each other in the base joint, with the ring and little fingers moving together. The long fingers are designed to be immobile in the middle and end phalanx. From the middle joint onwards, a spring element extends to the fingertip, which supports an adaptive grip when holding objects. The thumb is moved by the fourth motor independently of the fingers. The base of the thumb can be pivoted passively and laterally via a 90° joint. An easy and quick-to-learn control system allows the user to select from 16 different grips using muscle signals. The specially tailored training app and learning games support children and young people in getting to know the control system, making the hand easy to operate after a short time. The VINCENTyoung3+ is available in four color options: powder blue, black, blackberry and natural. As with the VINCENTevolution5, the VINCENTyoung3+ also offers a choice of four wrist variants. The hand can be worn with a textile cosmetic glove from GF. glove factory UG . However, it is usually used without a glove, because: It “just looks cool”.
